Description
A data set from an extensive experimental benchmark study of the Hell Bridge Test Arena (HBTA), a full-scale steel bridge subject to imposed damage, has been established. The data set includes organized dynamic response and load measurement data of the bridge under different structural state conditions, where the structural state conditions range from an undamaged (reference) state to known damage states. Furthermore, the data set includes acceleration and strain data from the response monitoring and acceleration data from the load monitoring, where a modal vibration shaker is used as an excitation source. The data is collected in one h5-file (hierarchical data format version 5) with a sampling rate of 100 Hz. Signal processing and resampling of the data has been performed according to the description provided in the references below. The data set is now published in this open-access data repository and can be accessed and downloaded freely. As such, the data set provides an important benchmark to the scientific community within bridge damage detection and SHM.
